EXCLUSIVE: Kathryn Beaumont Talks ‘Alice in Wonderland’

Kathryn Beaumont discusses the 60th Anniversary edition of Alice in Wonderland on Blu-ray I can't tell you what I was doing when I was 10 years old with any certainty, but I'm pretty sure it had something to do with swapping baseball cards with my friends. When Kathryn Beaumont was 10 years old, she signed on to portray the voice of Disney's animated adaptation of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. Not only did she provide the voice for this iconic character, but Walt Disney himself was so impressed with her acting ability, Kathryn Beaumont became the live-action model for Alice as well, performing scenes for the animators to base their work on.

The people that I've interviewed before that have done these Disney movies, it seems that it's rare for someone to not only voice the character but also serve as the live-action model as well. Can you talk about your initial meetings with Walt and when you first heard about this Alice in Wonderland role?
